"So, did you think about it?

In the car Caorle came to Micah with a serious face.

Micah thinks that if someone had seen this coming from the outside, they might have mistaken it for a proposal.

Micah, in particular, is still a junior high student, and it's a different matter if it really looks that way from a third party -

However, I could also say that this was indeed a confession close to the proposal. In particular, will you belong to the entertainment office that Caorle serves, just like Mai? I'm talking about it.

"... it was good before, but I will decline"

"Feelings still (...) the same?

"Yes, because I don't feel that way right now -"

Right, and caorle dropping his shoulders in dismay. But it's Micah who wants to be depressed.

Even after my sister Mai was gone, Caorle came to my home in her spare time. He encouraged me about my mother, Kyoka and Mika, who were disappointed every time, and my sister believed with me that she was sure she would be safe.

Because of that, Kyoka also regained her vitality to the point where she could behave naturally.

Even Micah took a few days off from school, but this made me excited and supportive.

Still, I can still feel weak, but I wouldn't have gotten back on my feet so far without the help of a caorle.

Caorle is also the one who protected me from the press, which was initially persistent.

He also picked me up and dropped me off at school as often as he did today. Especially because of that, like my colleagues in the club earlier, it also inspired me to turn my mind oddly.

Such a caorle has been asking Micah for a favor as a manager since the example video was uploaded.

Apparently, Caorle saw it too, and shortly after, Caorle asked the school to force him to come in and take a direct look at Micah's practice landscape.

And it seems Caorle was convinced when he saw it. Micah said she also had qualities like Mai.

Then Caorle started inviting Micah to join the office so many times.

Caorle was persistent, to put it badly. But I'm sure that's also a sign of his enthusiasm.

This was also the case when he had spoken Mai down before. It began with the scouts, desperately persuading her to be surprised, taking her to the house and many times, finally rocking Kyoka's heart, and my sister, Mai, also broke and shook her neck forward.

Exactly what you said about being struck by passion. But my face was overflowing with a smile when I said it was really persistent.

Micah still remembers that time. And now that invitation's on Micah - maybe that's an honor.

But - I had an inseparable self.

"... but I'm not giving up. Same goes for Mai, but I don't give up."

smiled and Caorle said. With a gentle smile, Micah's mouth seems to loosen by accident.

But still, no. Because in Micah, you can never be (...) instead of Mai.

"I'm always sorry, Mr. Caorle"

"No, the night lane is dangerous, and I was only there because I was out of work."

My mother Kyoka thanked Caoru for sending me to her apartment.

While rubbing his back of his head in a luminous way, then again, it was a caorle trying to leave.

"Oh, wait. Would you like to join us for dinner, if you like?

"No, don't worry about that. I didn't mean to stop by..."

And I just said it that far, and the sound of someone's belly rang.

The source is him in a suit.

- Heh, heh, heh. Don't hesitate.

"No, you got this."

It is a caorle that seems to illuminate but ends up treating dinner.

"No, we had a really good dinner"

A totally belly-filled caorle expresses his gratitude to Kyoka.

Kyoka, Mai and Mika's mother, is good at cooking.

The fried eggs in particular were excellent, and the egg rolls also had a gentle flavour reminiscent of the taste of the mother.

"It was worth making when you said so. We're all women, so it feels fresher when men get to the table."

Kyoka responding with a smile. But Mika's been quiet for a long time.

That's what I've noticed since they sent me back to Caorle.

"Micah, what's wrong? Something wrong or something?

"Beh, it's nothing like that."

Micah looking at Chirali and Caorle. Then Caorle shows his serious face.

"... Mother, I'm sorry. It must be my fault."

"Huh? Mr. Caorle, is it?

"- Yes, but you should still tell your mother about this,"

"Hey, Caorle."

"Actually - I want Micah! I can't wait to get it!

"Yep, yep, yep, yep!?"

All parents and children are surprised by this. When it comes to my mother Kyoka, she blushes and flutters for some reason.

"So, all of a sudden... and my daughter is still in middle school..."

"No, it's better to do this as soon as possible now!

"Huh? Oh, really? But, you know, the feeling of Micah at the heart..."

"Hey, wait a minute! Because it's not! Don't say anything misleading, either, Mr. Caorle!

Micah, though I, explained to my mother, and beheld Caorle.

And after listening to Micah, he is a caorle to know that he was again speechless with all sorts of things.

"Shh, I'm sorry, I said something confusing."

"Oh, no, I was a little surprised, but then. But really, Micah..."

Mother looking at Chirali and her daughter. But Micah doesn't answer anything.

"So, how does Micah feel?

"... I have said no many times"

"Oh, yes, it is. I can't get you to say" un. "

is a caorle that scratches the jaw.

"Right...... because Micah looked like this and sometimes she was stronger than Mai. I think you're strong inside."

"Oh, really? If that happens, it certainly may not be a glimmer -"

"Stop it already!

Micah slams the table hard and stands up. And kick! and glanced at the caorle.

"This is such a coward to your mother, not just me!

"Oh, no, the -"

"I thought Mr. Caorle was thinking more about us... after all, you're most important about yourself!

Micah gets furious. It's a caorle that rounds your eyes.

"Hey, wait a minute. Nothing. I am!

"Then why are you inviting me! I'm not done yet, and I haven't solved anything about your sister! Because I'm your sister, right? That's what you're going to do instead of your sister, let me be your substitute for the time being, and just fix your physique, right?

"Wait a minute! That's not true! I'm not..."

"This is terrible -"

Caorle trying desperately to excuse me, but seeing the tears that convey Micah's cheeks, the words stop.

"Even your mother, how can you look like that and listen to me? I can't believe it. I can't do it, I can't break it. Your sister is your sister! I can't replace anyone!

"... Micah, you know what?

"Awful, guys, I thought you could believe me, but I thought you believed me - at some point your sister is already out of mosquito nets... and everyone will forget about your sister..."

Turning her back, Micah jumped into the room and shut her.

Caorle ended up not being able to give Micah any voice like that.

"... you can't. I... I didn't even think about her feelings, and I ran along. In this case, you're disqualified as a manager. But trust me. I didn't forget about Mai, I didn't think about it in contempt."

"I know."

Kyoka opens her mouth so that it blocks Caorle's words.

"If this was anyone but you, I'd be kidding and yelling back at you. But, Mr. Caorle, I can trust what you said about buying me Mai and bringing me up so hard to lean in person."

Mother, and wipe the groaning tears.

"So let me hear it. Believe me, you're not really looking at that kid as a replacement for Mai, are you?

"Also, of course not! I am!"

And tell Kyoka. Caorle thinks of himself.

"... Really? I was relieved to hear that. It's up to her to decide, but no matter what happens, you can take care of Micah, too - so now keep your word and tell her directly."

With a smile like the Virgin Mary, Kyoka said.

And when he heard it, and wept again, and thanked him, Caorle followed the occasion.

◇ ◆ ◇

"Micah, I know how you feel, but if it happens again, at least listen to me."

Micah remembered what her mother Kyoka told her in the morning.

I thought a lot of things to the boulder didn't work too well last night, and I apologized to my mother, but I certainly haven't apologized to Caorle yet.

However, the feeling last night was that at least there were no lies in my thoughts about my sister or in the words I bumped into Caorle.

Maybe it was an overstatement, but I didn't think I could think of my sister's self as a substitute because my sister Mai was gone.

In the evening there was a practice of clubbing. Encourage theatre practice with everyone.

It's not the tournament anymore, but there's a play left to show to juniors at the end.

I can't care too much about the caorle.

"Today, you are here as a special lecturer"

But Caorle showed up before Micah like that. And for some reason, as a special lecturer - from a member who knew him, my voice rose all the time.

Nature and Mika are also embarrassed by their voices.

How the hell did you get here? and distrust overflowed at first.

But - that kind of emotion has blown up since the coaching of the caorle began.

Not so long ago, Caorle's instruction was authentic. It's not like the usual atmosphere, sometimes harsh, but praise when praising.

That didn't change against Micah either. There was no mercy.

But for some reason, it was full of fulfillment after practice.

"Kaoru Tachigi (Tagi Kaoru), who made a special effort as a lecturer today, is also our theatre department OB -"

Hearing that, Micah was surprised. But there was also a point. Why did Caorle come to visit the theatre department because he asked for it?

Besides, Caorle also held a personal acting award at the national tournament.

He also contributed to winning awards in group matches at the Kamikaze Theatre Festival.

"- Surprised. Mr. Caorle, you were doing a play."

"Ha ha, it was a long time ago."

On the way home from practice, when Micah asked Caorle, Caorle replied, laughing lightly.

"- Even this, for a time, I was going to eat in earnest on the theatrical path. But take an arrow to your knees during practice. There was no obstacle to everyday life, but there was nothing else to give up theatre."

"Were you, and, uh, in the entertainment office?

"Oh, and Conne I know. For a while I was in a state of self-immolation, but for the minute I couldn't fulfill my dream, I wanted to support someone's dream. He wants to grow a talented kid."

With eyes that look far away, Caorle keeps talking.

"I couldn't help but give up on my dreams, so when I see a possible child, I really can't leave him alone. So did Mai, and now I'm thinking the same thing for you."

"But I..."

"I know. But that's all I wanted you to hear. That's what you said yesterday that I wanted you to come instead of Mai? But that's just a misunderstanding."

"Misunderstood?"

I nod cocklessly, and look at Mika with serious eyes.

"Instead, I feel a different talent for you than Mai. At first, I was interested in watching the video, and when I saw your practice in the theatre department directly, I became convinced. Naturally, you and Mai are different. Instead, if you were just like Mai, I wouldn't have stuck with you so far."

…………

Micah is also silent and listens seriously.

"I found a different possibility for you than Mai. That's why I can, I can, I can be crazy about you, I can be desperate! Never be my understudy or anything! That's all I wanted you to know."

"Caorle, …"

"But I may have been in a little too much of a hurry. So I won't force you from here. [M] It's just - I accidentally became a fan when I saw your act, remember there was one stupid guy like that, do it. Of course, it's about Mai, and I still believe I can see her healthy."

That's what I said and I laughed nicely.

"... Mr. Caorle, I'm sorry. I don't even know how you feel, but I said that yesterday."

You were struck by that feeling, Micah bowed her head.

"No! I had my consideration yesterday, too! Don't apologize like that!

"But - I'm sorry, I haven't been able to sort out my feelings yet. But I'll take this matter more seriously. So - can you just wait a little longer?

It was more of a sorry caorle to Micah's reaction - but moisten her eyes with the words she returned shortly afterwards.

"Of course! I'll wait as long as I can, I'll wait! So..."

That's all I said, and Caorle's tummy rang again.

Besides, it's Micah who spills couscous and laughter.

"Well, shall we eat your mother's cooking again, together?

That's what I told you with a sweet smile.

◇ ◆ ◇

"Ka... um - what the hell is wrong with you? That drama, that you decided to postpone the broadcast time, what an irresponsible idol my suddenly gone, why don't you just cut it out?"

A manager with a frigid smile gives a voice to a musty director.

The director is a celebrity in this industry, and the drama that he has created his own script talks about getting at least 20% viewership.

And as the heroine of the drama that I was originally planning to work on next, as an actress, I also fussed about the news for a time because I promoted Shinmachi (Akami), who was still inexperienced.

"I knew if you could use our Akechi Entertainment push, the current variety to voice actor, the theatre and the hot topic, Hara Red Furnace Yi (Harakuro), the viewership four-digit would be light already! You know what? I already won with this! Gahaha!"

"There can't be four digits in viewership, idiot."

A tense manager in vain on the frigid, but the director returns it clearly without changing his musty attitude.

"Yes, no, look, is this, like, a realm coujo? Is that how awesome it is? I'm not gonna let you lose anything anyway, am I? All right, what do you say? Right?"

Manager trying to be flexible while rubbing shoulders

But...

"Well, I've already given up on Mai. Well, that's something I can't help right now."

"Oh, you will. You will! If so..."

"Oh, so I decided to open the audition again"

"Yeah, well, let's be honest with our Croy, huh?

"Details will be announced next week, so, well, if you're going to tell me why, you'll still have to look at it and let me apply. Bye."

And with the poker manager elsewhere, his hands flickered, the director headed to another site -
